Notes et avis

I really hope Zach Braff doesn't stop making movies. His characters are engaging without being cookie cutter version of every character you've ever seen. This is a great movie with a great cast. Joey King is endearing, Pierce Gagnon is credible as her character's younger brother. I appreciated this diversion from the mundane.

Good acting and unique but wasn't a masterful narrative, I found myself fast forwarding through a lot of it not that it's a bad movie I just think I don't really like these Indie Melancholy movies as much as I thought I did not that that's helpful, but I think I had too high of expectations for this movie.

With a not very classic family this guy, his wife and his children show us a different set of colors of life from what we might think is a bad or sad or difficult life and how is that most of the times the answer to our problems is right there, like the inspiration, that when it shows up it has to find us working...
